huangnon Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Think they're probably just going to arrange a few skirmishes at the border, to justify arms, tanks, jet fighters and possibly submarine purchases..? Over a very civilized game of golf though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

selftaopath Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Wonder if he'll remind Prayut that it's '2016'. And times are a changin'. Or perhaps he's looking for a job that he has experience in b/f Myamar's shift to democracy... like the new Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srikcir Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 The Prime Minister cited the readiness of the Thai government to cooperate with Myanmar’s new civilian government. Sadly, Gen Min Aung Hlaing couldn't return such cooperation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
